McAuliffe is afraid

So now Terry McAuliffe says that debate decisions are a "staff matter?" It seems that after ducking 10 additional proposed gubernatorial debates with Ken Cuccinelli that would have brought him to midsized towns like ours, he also wanted to avoid the direct questioning from his opponent that is a traditional part of the bar association debate.

It's pretty clear what "The Macker" is afraid of: The people of Virginia might actually see him up against a real leader who knows something about running a government- as opposed to raising money from Hollywood types and cashing in on his political connections. And they might have further occasion to compare McAuliffe to someone who doesn't have to depend on his staff to make decisions and do the right thing for Virginians.

A "staff matter?" Debates are a matter of serving the people, specifically, fulfilling their right to know what kind of leaders they might be electing. Sadly, Terry McAuliffe has already given them their answer.
